we'll get kicked in the ass :) put some second string players on the pitch...but if we give it a little thought milan will be preserving players also cause their main goal is the scudetto, so if we go out with our 1st team maybe we can make a miracle :)

Last year I watched as they lost to a Catania side which got destroyed by Roma in the next round. Year after year, Milan lose to smaller opposition in Coppa italia and we are more than good enough to beat them. Remember '04?

Palermo have defeated them with a humiliating score,they're 6 points behind the top of the table,psychologically they're not at their best,and so far the have struggled to win sides like Chievo and Siena...Nor of course to mention the fact that the previous years they didn't care at all for the coppa,and as a result they got eliminated by teams like Catania..

I know that Lazio has a bad tradition against Milan,but as long as they continue to consider this competition "a waste of time",every team which faces milan can (at least) cause them trouble..

I'm expecting quite a different game to what we've seen against Atalanta. I think it would suit us better if Milan came out more attacking but then again it's Milan and they do have Kaka and Ronaldinho.

I just hope that our players play with more heart and passion this time. Against Atalanta our boys really lacked passion.

Milan will put some players too rest... and that's dangerous, the other players will play on their top to prove that they are first team material.It's gonna be a tight game, maybe till extra time and penalties.

I am mystified as to why he hasn't got any chances this season. Yes, we know Lichti has performed well but De Silvestri was given the chance to improve a lot last year by regularly playing (even in a poor team) and has now lost the oportunity to further progress. Maybe he would have started the season if not for the Olympics?I hope this isn't another case of a falling out with Rossi and that we will lose the only home-grown talent we have had in 10 years. Lichti deserves a rest for a Coppa match.

I hate our record against Milan and have little confidence tonight, only hope... Muslera is no big deal, we've got to make sure the midfield plays to have any chance. IMO the defence will continue to be suspect so we've just got to accept that, but if we don't sort out something in the midfield then we are stuffed as we'll never get anything going forward either, unless Zarate starts to do some individual magic again.
